I think that these two men are the best buddies I have ever had. But when they turned on me, everything was different. I've done everything I can to avoid seeing and speaking to them for almost four months. I made the decision to put my past behind me and move on today. I'm not guaranteeing myself that we'll become as close as we were previously.
Did you experience such a situation?
Did your best friend ever betray you?

Yes, a LONG time ago. I miss him but haven't tried to find him or talk to him since then.

@DaddyEvil I guess it was his fate to die young. Although I felt bad that we did not spend much time to fulfill our own respective dreams in life together.

@Shavkat That happens in a lot of cases. I hope his loss doesn't mean you've been restricted in what you do in your life.

I’ve never personally experienced betrayal, but I understand how deeply it can hurt—especially when it comes from people you trusted most. It’s like a piece of your foundation suddenly crumbles, and it takes time to rebuild your sense of trust and peace. Walking away, as you’ve done, can be an important step in protecting yourself and starting fresh. Whether or not the friendship ever returns to what it was, you’ve already chosen to prioritize your own well-being, and that’s a powerful move forward.

No, I was never betrayed by a close friend. Maybe because of my nature as I don't get close to the people and in real life I have 1 or 2 friends and those too live far from me and we rarely have a phone contact.
As far as I think it someone betrays me I cannot forget him/her and can't move on. It's easy for the people to say that we should move on but it is difficult in real. I don't know how you can do this.
